This invention pertains to building construction and more'particularly to the construction of .walls and ce1hngs with wall board.
One of the objects of this invention is to provide a construction in which plaster" board and other types of wall used and which will provide board may he an improved appearance of the finished wall.
Another object isqto provide an corners in the construction for joints and use of wall board.
Another object is to provid tion which will be simple .an to install.
Further objects will avpear improved e a constructd inexpensive from the following descriptiontalren inconnection with the accompanying drawing in which:
Figure -1 section of the construction oitth is invent 1s .a perspective view partly in a portion of a room illustrating ion.
Figure 2 is a vertical sectionaldetail of a building illustrating another application of this invention.
Figure 3 is a horizontal section of a building illustrating another invention.
appli cation of this Figure 4t is a detail showing the junction of two partitions.
Figure 5 is an enlargeddetail of the construction, and
Figure 6 1s a perspective view showing another embodiment oi this invention.
The ordinary wall gypsum, and adapted to ing the same to the studding viding a finished wall surface.
board is a building material made up in sheet form or plaster, paper or other suitable material be applied by and then pro- In the preparation of such wall board, however, it is difficult to provide edges. Accordingly, adjacent slabs usually disclo straight and smooth the meeting points of less rough seam or crack between the edges of adjacent slabs.
In accordance with this invention, the edge of each slab is placed in a recess in the stud or other support so as greater or less extent the edge or" the slab.
to hide to a the irregularity of Referring to the drawing, 1 designates a slab or wall board which is mounted upon the studs 2 of the of the ceiling. The studs or wall or upon the joists 3 joists furnish in each'case the supports for the wall board.
In accordance with this inven tion each supsimply nailport which receives the edge of a slab 1 is provided with a strip .or head 4. upstanding therefrom and extending therealong throughout the length of the slab. This strip or board may be formedon the stud or support by suitably recessing the edge, or it may be formed separately and attached to the support. The latter construction allows for the use of standard studs and joists and permits the application of the strip to the same after they'have been putin place in the building.
Thestrip may be formed with a simple rectangular cross section .or'it may be formed with one orboth sides beveled as illustrated in Figures 2, 3 and at. The beveled side has the advantage of providing an overhanging edge which may be fitted snugly against the slab so .as to overcome to a greater extent the effect of irregularity of the edge oi the slab. The strip may be formed on-or attached to the support so as to extend along the middle of the edge thereof leaving recesses 5 along the support on each side of the strip. The edges of adjacent slabs or wall boards are fitted into these recesses as illustrated in the drawing and are also socured to the support by nailing or other suitable means. The slab may further be secured to intermediate supports which are not provided with strips 4 as illustrated in Figures 1 and 3.
At the corner where wall and ceiling meet, the ceiling slab may be run clear against the wall support, its edge extending into the recess above the edge of the strip l as shown in Figure 2. This strip then serves to additionally support the ceiling slab and also to form a clean, sharp corner therewith. The wall slab is then madeto abut the lower edge of the strip, which runs horizontally along the top of the wall. This construction may also be used at the vertical corners of the walls as illustrated at A in Figure 3, and also at the meeting points of partition walls as shown in Figure 4.
It will be seen, therefore, that this invention provides a construction which is cheap and simple to install and which provides an improved appearance of the finished walls or ceiling. This improved appearance is due to the placing of the strip 4.- between adjacent edges of the slabs 1. The straight edges of the strip 4 tend to hide the rough edges of the slabs so that a clean cut effect is obtained in the finished wall. In many the recesses ;5 formed These may mwa'll board.

cases such a Wall can be finished Without the necessity of applying filler or cement in the cracks at the edges of the slabs.
